Good to know :
Sowing: March / April
Harvesting: July / OctoberThe Ronde de Valence variety is a robust, productive eggplant, with round, smooth, good-quality fruit weighing around 170 grams or more and with a diameter of over 9 cm. The plants, reaching a height of 0.7 to 0.8 m, have slightly wavy, hairy, prickle-free leaves and light mauve flowers.
For successful sowing, sow in pots in March/April, maintain a constant temperature of 25°C, cover the seeds with potting soil and water lightly. The 15 cm seedlings should be transplanted into the ground at the end of May, 50 cm apart, in rich, sunny soil.
Harvesting begins around 5 months after sowing. Eggplants go well with bush beans. Downy mildew, red spider mites, Colorado beetles and aphids are among eggplant's main enemies. To protect the plants, preventive and curative treatments, such as the use of nettle purin, black soap and Bordeaux mixture, can be applied.
